Unsupervised fraud detection from security cameras
FY 2018-19 · 2019-01-01
Summary
Currently, loss prevention/risk professionals use data to isolate "exceptions' via business intelligence tools that allow them to focus on a particular individual or case where they can consume and watch video. It's a time intensive process to review hours of video to identify suspicious or fraudulent activity. This type of activity can be achieved through the use of AI to identify what would be fraudulent transactions and thus flag suspicious activity for the loss-prevention professional to review. Taking this further, the ability to use motion (or lack thereof) from a camera can help identify patterns of activity that can then be classified and used to provide users with information previously not available.

Description
Currently, loss prevention/risk professionals use data to isolate "exceptions' via business intelligence tools that allow them to focus on a particular individual or case where they can consume and watch video. It's a time intensive process to review hours of video to identify suspicious or fraudulent activity. This type of activity can be achieved through the use of AI to identify what would be fraudulent transactions and thus flag suspicious activity for the loss-prevention professional to review. Taking this further, the ability to use motion (or lack thereof) from a camera can help identify patterns of activity that can then be classified and used to provide users with information previously not available.
Description (French)
Présentement, les professionnels de la prévention des pertes et des risques utilisent les données pour isoler les " exceptions " au moyen d'outils de veille économique, qui leur permettent de se concentrer sur une personne ou un cas particulier où ils peuvent consommer et regarder des vidéos. C'est un processus, qui prend beaucoup de temps pour examiner des heures de vidéo afin d'identifier les activités suspectes ou frauduleuses. Ce type d'activité peut être réalisé par l'utilisation de l'IA pour identifier les transactions frauduleuses et ainsi signaler les activités suspectes que le professionnel de la prévention des pertes doit examiner. Pour aller plus loin, la capacité d'utiliser le mouvement (ou l'absence de mouvement) d'une caméra peut aider à identifier des modèles d'activité, qui peuvent ensuite être classés et utilisés pour fournir aux utilisateurs des informations non disponibles auparavant.
